Judge Stump, in his charge to the
Grand Jury, called attention to the
fact that though the proprietor of a
pear cider saloon in Perryville had
been sent to Jail at the last term of
Court for six months for violating the
Local Option law, another man had
opened another shop close by and
had kept open house every since;
and that one night las. week gang
of Williams poured coal oil on long
haired dog and set it on fire, near the
new saloon, in Perryville. The dog
ran home and set fire to its masters
dwelling, a small frame house, and
endangered the lives Of his wife and
three small children, and destroyed
lot of clothing. The dog afterwards
set fire to it's kennel and died in great
agony. What followed in this de.
partment of Justice Immediately was
Samuel Anderson of Port Deposit
tried before the Court and con-
victed of violation of the prohibition
law, and sentenced to thirty days
Imprisonment and to pay a fine of
$500.
No tobacco splitting is to be allow
ed inside the new court room, and
Judge Stump has ordered the bailiff
to lead any one out who is detected
splitting tobacco juice on the floor.
That is a good rule anyhow.

FREE TRADE,

The reduction of internal revenue and
the taking off of revenue stamps from
Proprietary Medicines, no doubt has
largely benefited the consumers, as we'll
as relieving the burden of home manufac-
turers. Especially is this the case with
Green's August Flower and Boschee's Ger
man Syrup, as the reduction of thirty six
cents per dozen has been added to increase
the size of the bottles containing these
remedies, thereby giving one-ffth more
medicine in the 75cent size. The August
Flower for Dyspepsia and Liver Com
plant, and the German Syrup for Cough

Safe, permanent and complete are the
cures of bilious and intermittent diseases,
made by Prickly Ash Bitters. Dyspepsia,
general debility, hahltual constipation
liver and kidney complaints are speedily
eradicated from the system. 1t disinfects,
cleanses and eliminates all malaria
Health and vigor are obtained more
rapidly and permanently by the use OF
this great natural antidote than by any
other remedy heretofore known. As a
blood purifier and tonic it brings health,
renewed energy and vitality to a worn and
diseased body.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1887-01-13

Mrs. John S. Ellis, of New York, a well
known and wealthy society lady, has sailed
for Paris to be treated by Pasteur. She
was bitten few days be-
fore by large let Scotch
collie dog. The collie had been attacked
by strange dog, and it was in separating
them that Mrs. Ellis was bitten. The
collie sickened and died, and it was said
that the strange dog had shown signs of
hydrophobia. Mrs. Ellis was not alarmed,
but her family insisted upon her going to
Paris at once.

DEBT AND TAXATION .

NIHgsVOH LeHUtT,
The New York World very concisely
states the financial situation thus: "The
public debt was reduced over S9000OOO
in December. The taxes were reduced o."
How do the people like the attitude of
the republican party on the question of
taxation! Do they like a party that
favors 0 reduction of the war taxes?

and Lung troubles, have, perhaps, the
largest sale or any medicines in the world
The advantage of increased size of the
bottles will be greatly appreciated by the
sick and afflicted in every town and vii
Iape in civilized countries. Sample bot
ties for 10 cents remain the same size.
